    structure program I need some fidback, please

    I wrote part of the program. Could somebody give me some fidback if sees any errors. It's a part of long project so I don't want to start new part until I don't understand the first one. What I need to do in this program is to create a typedef structure which support the data show below.

    Welcome to the forum, BomiM!

    Rather than asking us to study and /or test your code, don't you want to see if it works under real adverse testing? If you're going to write programs, you need to find ways to test each block of code or function. You can test it quite thoroughly, before the whole program is written, of course!

    Give it some real "corkers" to deal with - bad input, file not found, first, middle and last record in the file or array can't be edited or found in the search. You know the chinks where it could fail, I hope. To test functions that call other functions that aren't written yet, just put in stubs for now:

    Code:
    void mystub(void) {
      
    
    }
    You may get a warning from your compiler, but you can ignore it.

    One of the big reasons for functions in the first place, is that they improve encapsulation of code/logic/function, which helps us test each part of the program, as we are coding it. Use that encapsulation, to your advantage, as you test.

    The age struct member --- why does it need [4] int's? Wouldn't one int be enough? (You were thinking of digits maybe, in a string? Those aren't int's though.)
